Doctor please check my report I have attached below. Occult blood shows trace. What does trace mean. What could be the reason for it. Is it something serious or something to worry about? Please help doctor.

Trace means very small amount; could be from minor causes like hemorrhoids, but needs evaluation if persistent. Not always serious.

I have been having stomach ache for 1 to 2 years. My reports are normal. The pain is on the left side and is continuous.

My occult blood report is not detected, but there is blood in my stool in physical examination. Is it a cause of concern?
